Features: At the age of less than 4, he picked out these uncomfortable little cardboard pieces and placed them in his empty biscuit box, making sure they couldn’t escape. After that, he always secretly “got rid of the pests” when his mother wasn’t looking, picking out one by one those dull and unpleasant little cardboard pieces. As he put them into the biscuit box, he would always feel a sense of pride as a little hero saving the day. However, his mother’s frustration grew stronger and stronger. Why couldn’t her puzzle always come together? After carefully counting the little cardboard pieces, she discovered that over a hundred were missing. With his help, she freed these “little pests” that had been locked away in the biscuit box. He watched as his mother carefully placed these little cardboard pieces into the unfinished picture, and gradually, a scene of spring with blooming white flowers and distant blue mountains took shape before his eyes. He was amazed to see that these dull, dark, and even repulsive little cardboard pieces, when placed among bright colors, could transform an originally shapeless picture into something beautiful and perfect. Slowly, he also fell in love with the puzzle game, always hiding the picture on the lid of the box. In the complete unknown, he would explore, carefully observing the shape, edges, and colors of each little cardboard piece. He helped thousands of pieces find their perfect fit, placing them one by one, combining them piece by piece. Miraculously, a colorful and magnificent picture gradually emerged, flawless and perfect.
As he grew older, frustration, heartache, and pain inevitably adorned his life. He couldn’t bear the consecutive challenges that came one after another, feeling disheartened, discouraged, and depressed. But time and again, he stubbornly stood up. Each time he emerged from the storm, the sky seemed bluer, and the sea wider. He finally realized that the setbacks and blows on life’s journey were like the dull and unpleasant little cardboard pieces in a puzzle. Without them, the complete picture couldn’t be assembled, nor could the brilliance of success be highlighted.
After entering the workforce, he started as a small office worker and gradually rose to become a junior manager and then a middle-level manager. He gradually came to understand that running a company was like assembling a puzzle. He learned how to understand and observe the unique traits and strengths of each person, then placing them in the right and fitting positions. Now, he is the head of a well-known corporate group. When the media interviews him about his business philosophy and life philosophy, he always answers, “Puzzles.”
Pursuing dreams is like reaching for the stars. They shine with magnificent colors at every moment before your eyes, but when you reach out to touch them, they remain just out of reach. The path to pursuing dreams is filled with thorns and hardships, and to cross it, one must pay with blood, tears, and sweat. Otherwise, one cannot break through the thorns and press forward with determination. It will forever remain a bright and dazzling star in the sky, one that cannot be held close.
When he first learned to skate, he was like everyone else—wobbling and stumbling, falling head over heels, leaving behind days of bruises and aches all over his body. What set him apart was that at that moment, he knew his destiny, envisioned his dreams, and saw the goals he would pursue in the future. While children of his age were still fast asleep in bed, he was already skating.
